No 11 in the world, and I'm pretty sure he was top 10 earlier in the year. Really surprised me how well he has played on hard courts this year. I think it was earlier in the year at IW where he completely dismantled Berdych. Only problem is movement and defense in comparison to the top 4.

Why isnt Almagro ranked higher? I am going to say fitness. Fitness is probably the most important factor separating the top players.

His game is not that effective against the top players on hard court. He's mostly a clay court player. Love watching his game though, he always gives you a good show. Combines classic form with a fiery attitude.
